another new Widow
« on: February 24, 2009, 01:55:00 PM »
Here is my new Widow. 64" MAIII in Autumn Oak, 53Lbs@28" with crossgrain Bamboo limbs. Shoots amazing for only drawing 53lbs. Still working on arrow setup and tuning.

Jason the burr limb bolts are really nice but they do add a little weight to the bow. I just think they look great. Thanks for the comments boys. I am truly excited to get back into trad archery. I developed severe inflamatory arthritis and had to quit shooting at age 45. I shot Widows for 20 yrs. I am now 57 and starting all over again and loving it. Pulling a lot less weight than I used to but at least I'm Back. Glad I found this site and hope I can contribute a little and hope I can ask a lot of questions.

Great looking bow!I am shooting AD trad Lites cut to 29.25" and 150 to 200gr head weight in my new PSA 47lb@27". They fly like darts I couldn't tune them any better if I tried.

I thought they added a nice touch as well!  How are they as far as tightening them up?  Do they dig into your fingers?  There's nothing wrong with shooting 53lbs.  It's all about proper shot placement, as I'm sure you well know.

I'm happy to hear you're back into it!   :)

Jason they tighten up real easy and hold solid. I was worried about that myself but they work great.
